Ski aid for Haiti

Moving Mountains Chalets is making the offer for the remainder of the winter. The company has strong ties to the Carribean.

"Our business of providing luxury lodging and services is in stark contrast to the conditions that so many people in Haiti are dealing with. Donating from what we receive to provide these services was the best way that we could find to help the relief effort," says Robin Craigen, president of Moving Mountains.   

"We moved to Steamboat from the Caribbean 12 years ago but still have a great connection to that part of the world."

The employees of Moving Mountains came up with the idea. They will collectively donate 2% of lodging value from their wages and the company will match with 3% making a total of 5%.

"We are so proud of our staff for rallying together for this cause," Heather Craigen, Vice President of Moving Mountains added.

"This initiative exemplifies our core values. Steamboat is a caring community and we hope that other ski town businesses might join the cause of Ski Aid and show people that although we are all challenged by the current economy we can join together to help people that have more to worry about than when the next powder day is coming."
